Dear Amos,

I did restart the networking.

When I just to review all iptables settings, from tcpdump we can see

09:35:23.830038 IP nodes-links.37711 > noder-linkr.http-alt: Flags
[S], seq 3652549612, win 5840, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val
59678297 ecr 0,nop,wscale 6], length 0
09:35:26.827763 IP nodes-links.37711 > noder-linkr.http-alt: Flags
[S], seq 3652549612, win 5840, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val
59679047 ecr 0,nop,wscale 6], length 0
09:35:28.828079 ARP, Request who-has noder-linkr tell nodes-links, length 46

I think the nodec1 (my squid3 machine) is even able to start an ARP query.

My OS is Ubuntu, kernel version
yeung_at_nodec1:/etc/squid3$ uname -r
2.6.32-34-generic-pae

I have checked the rp_filter setting, it has been disabled.

Sorry for causing you trouble.

Best,
Alex
